OK, next up. Finishing the boxes. I started with a coat of Zinzers oil based "Cover Stain" primer.

I had planned to paint the plinth at the bottom of the baffle and the tops with a Black Lacquer. After experimenting with this on the tops I abandoned it for now. It did not go well and the odour was strong and persistent. I still may lacquer the tops. I painted them with the same finish as the rest of the box. I screwed them on without gluing them so I can change them out if I decide on a different finish. Perhaps in the summer when I can work outside i will try again.

I then applied 2 coats of Rustoleum Painters Touch flat black latex. I used a foam roller. Next I applied 2 coats of Varathane Diamond Coat satin with a good quality bristle brush. If you try to roll this stuff you get runs and air bubbles.
